CM7000 Master Guide
STEP 1: Change Option 2-10 to setting 3 – Tachless Mode.
STEP 2: Process complete – there is no further programming required other than adjusting crank time
when necessary (see below).
Adjusting Crank Time: To adjust minimum crank times, refer to Option 2-12. To help ensure successful
starting, the system will automatically add additional crank time to the 2nd and 3rd start attempts. In
addition, there is a built in "Smart Resting Mode". Traditional tach sensing is still highly recommended
for colder climates.
Timed Crank Setting – Automatic Transmissions Only
Option 2-10 setting 4 provides a timed 3 second crank for the remote start sequence. This option just
cranks the vehicle for 3 seconds and assumes remote start has completed. This option can be used for
GM and other vehicles with built in anti-grind systems.
Advanced Tachless
Advanced Tachless is a no connection feature (2-11 option 2) that can be used as a more reliable
"tachless" or no wire connection option. In order for this feature work the no connection "voltage sense"
feature (2-10 option 3) must be selected and no tach signal input on the main control module should be
present.
Assumed Timed Crank
Assumed Time Crank is the last feature of Option 2-10 for remote starting. This is intended for vehicles with
built-in anti-grind feature or vehicles that do not have a 12V Positive starter wire at the ignition harness. This
option will send a 3.0 second crank signal to the vehicle. This option can be used on vehicles with built in
anti-grind systems or Push To Start (PTS) systems.
Green/White Loop
This loop wire determines the transmission setting. The default position (uncut loop) is for manual
transmissions. When the loop is cut, the system will be ready for automatic transmissions. In the default
(manual transmission) mode, the system must be set up in Reservation mode prior to the vehicle being able
to remote start. IMPORTANT: All warranties or claims are void if a controller with a cut loop is installed on
a vehicle with a manual transmission.
Reservation Mode for Manual Transmissions
To remote start a manual transmission vehicle, the system must first be set up in reservation mode.
Reservation mode is designed to prevent the vehicle from remote starting while the transmission is in gear.
Installation Requirements
1. FT-DAS (Digital Adjustable Sensor) must be connected.
2. The vehicle's door triggers must be connected to the control module. Prior to making final
connections, test the factory door triggers to ensure that they are functioning properly.
